Quality Planning and Factory Capabilities

Agree the fit, appearance, inspection and acceptance requirements for your product—or the trial and handover requirements for standalone molds. The quality plan follows the product, material, intended use and target market.

Plastic component assembly line at the Dongguan manufacturing facility

Connected process coverage

A defined scope for each product and material

ITTAK supports plastic model kits, plastic toys, fixed-pose and articulated figures, polystone figures and statues, resin statues, and slush-molded vinyl figures, as well as standalone mold development and delivery. HIPS, ABS and PVC component production is in-house. The appropriate process, inspection plan and division of work are confirmed for each project; not every category uses the same equipment or workflow.

Tooling

Mold engineering and acceptance

Define how approved part information, mold construction, trial feedback, revisions and approvals connect. For mold-only orders, agree the receiving factory requirements and handover package separately from product production.

Production

Product-specific manufacturing

Scope component production, decoration, assembly and packaging around the chosen product. Confirm the relevant inspection points for injection-molded parts, resin or polystone statues, and slush-molded vinyl figures individually.

Review

Documented approval conditions

Define the drawings, material requirements, appearance criteria, reference samples, approval method and market documentation that apply. Equipment, capacity, tolerances and acceptance criteria are confirmed before they are treated as commitments.

Define the quality requirements

Focus the review on product risks

These considerations guide the conversation; the actual inspection plan must be agreed for the specific project.

Model kits & plastic toys

Review component identification, visible surfaces, assembly interfaces and part completeness. Define how fit and molding-related feedback will be recorded and approved.

Fixed-pose & articulated figures

Clarify pose, support, assembly and appearance. Where a figure moves, agree the intended range of motion, joint feel and evaluation conditions instead of assuming one universal joint standard.

Resin & polystone statues

Agree surface appearance, part joins, support and base requirements, decoration references and protective packaging. Review the actual material specification for the project.

Slush-molded vinyl figures

Define the required shape, feel, part interfaces and decorated appearance. Assess approved samples under agreed handling and packaging conditions.

Standalone molds

Agree trial conditions, sample review, revisions, acceptance records and the information needed by the receiving factory. Do not assume that a mold handover includes a production order.

Appearance & packaging

Set project-specific color, paint, print, handling and packing references. Describe any transport-related evaluation requested and confirm its scope before production.

Confidential projects

Agree protection before sensitive files move

Confirm the confidentiality and file-transfer process before unreleased designs or other sensitive project information are exchanged.

  • Share only non-confidential qualification details at first contact
  • Arrange the NDA and suitable file-transfer method before sending sensitive IP
  • Define file access, review and approval responsibilities for each project stage

Target-market requirements

Include testing and documentation needs in the enquiry

Requirements vary by product and sales market. Identify the intended markets, applicable standards and documents your team expects.

ITTAK will confirm which testing or documentation support, if any, can be included in the reviewed project scope.

Evidence and scope

Ask for relevant evidence, not unrelated examples

The public KAIYODO / ARTPLA galleries show authorized plastic model-kit projects. They do not demonstrate every product material or process offered. Other customer work may remain confidential; discuss what non-confidential information can support your supplier review.

Explore the manufacturing categories or review standalone mold development and delivery.

Define the quality requirements for your product or mold

Start with a non-confidential overview of the intended product, material, market and required deliverables. Agree the inspection and approval scope before production or mold handover.
